Hi again, I posted last week, our Blacktail chicken had 1 eye closed, we've been cleaning it with saline (and I'm waiting for some eye drops arriving), she's lethargic, not eating or drinking (we're syringing water, and water with poultry tonic and poultry nutri drops into her, she gulps/swallows that), her poop is Black and Bright Yellow, I've attached a picture taken yesterday, it's still yellow today, (sorry it's not pleasant), I'm concerned incase she has Egg Yolk peritonitis, I spoke with our vet but they did not have any appointments for 2 weeks, I'm thinking of trying another vets, but before I do that, I wanted to ask if you think I'm being over caucious, is the bright yellow stuff in her poop a natural process, or should we be concerned? The picture of me holding her was when we first noticed her eye was shut last week, but the second picture of her eye I've just taken today, she looks terrible now, I am really concerned about her.
